Barack Obama: "I Do Believe at a Some Point, You've Made Enough Money."

Barack Obama went off te teleprompter for a bit in Quincy, Illinois, and revealed a bit more about himself than i think he wanted to:The money--irony intended--quote:
We’re not, we’re not trying to push financial reform because we begrudge success that’s fairly earned. I mean, I do think at a certain point you’ve made enough money. But, you know, part of the American way is, you know, you can just keep on making it if you’re providing a good product or providing good service. We don’t want people to stop, ah, fulfilling the core responsibilities of the financial system to help grow our economy.
I assume Obama’s handlers have ripped out large chunks of their own hair by now. Someone needs to sit him down and explain to him Saul Alinsky’s theory was to appear to be a moderate while stealthly pursuing a radical agenda, not showing your true colors right away. He will need more than a teleprompter to keep him on message I the future.

It is no one’s responsibility to tell you when you have made enough money. Not that there is such a thing as making too much. You earned it, it is yours. The view point that there is a limit to how much one should make is a statistt one. I have a difficult time believing so many people were suckered into electing a president who believes such a thing.
